Pumpkin Contest: James & Kana
"That is the goal here, isn't it?" James asked, checking to see if he'd gotten any orange goop under his fingernails. "To make them look nice, I mean. Or ghoulish. Or whatever it is the judges are looking for."
He watched Kana clean out his pumpkin without stopping her. He did make a quiet comment like "You don't have to do that..." but he knew she was doing it to be nice. That's what Kana was. She was nice. Nice people did the dirty work for others.
As she finished, he smiled. "I'm ever grateful. I hope your help doesn't disqualify me. I rather have my eye on that milkshake gift card." He joked.
